RC10+Budget

media type="custom" key="28358507"

Our budget is very limited - it depends on the number of dues paying members of RC10 and at the Cachan business meeting we had decided to **keep our funds** **to help organize our mid-term conferences and the subsequent publications**. . However Japan is quite expensive for colleagues not from Asia, thus the decision (after consulting with the Secretary, two RC10 past-presidents and our treasurer (the ISA rule here is that the decision is taken by the President and the Secretary )  to ask the Board for RC10 grants to a couple of colleagues.

can contribute to the discussion.
 * We are opening this wiki page on the **** topic ** of **criteria** for allocating **exceptionally** limited number of **travel grants**, so all ISA RC10 members

Criteria proposed in the discussion so far:

the complement that makes the difference or tips the scale to enable the colleague who gets it to attend
 * colleagues should be RC10 members in good standing to even be considered
 * priority should be given to those coming from countries C not having received RC10 grants previously
 * they should preferably either make an active contribution, function before and during the Congress, be student or retired colleague with seniority in RC10 that also make an important contribution
 * RC10 grant, which is very small (200EU) compared to the expenses entailed in attending the congress, should also just be
 * require that the grantee's institution certify they are not also financing attendance
